Sure, why not? It doesn't negatively affect anyone.

100% yes, who should say what's right or wrong when everyone is consenting? Some people want massive families, others want small - I happen to want a massive family so I agree with being polygamous and my husband and I are trying to be polygamous, having another woman in the house will be a great help, considering I am disabled and I feel I burden my family as it is.

No, I don't believe in that, I would not be good at sharing.

Yes

Nothing wrong with it. I've sort of practiced it last year with two guys and a girl, works like a charm if everyone is aware of the situation and is accepting and mature about it. Only reason why it's illegal is bc it's against some religions' rules/beliefs.

No

This practice is basically beneficial to the man,I guess so he want be labelled as a cheater! No,man or woman should have more then one partner,I should be saying "Man" because I've never heard of a woman practicing "Polygamy"!

I have a question. If someone wants to have a polygamous marriage, how does it negatively affect you?

reply
SOUL4REAL to Sayer S... 2012/09/26 02:40:47

It wouldn't affect me at all, because it not me; and I wouldn't do nothing like that! I have a question for you,"Why would you ask me a dumb azz question like that"??

Because I think that polygamous marriage does not negatively affect anyone however you seemed to have a problem with it.

SOUL4REAL to Sayer S... 2012/09/26 15:02:12

That's my right to dislike something or like something! What you eat doesn't make me "Sh*t"! That's your opinion,and I know you are going to let me voice my opinion! I don't agree with that "Life Style"!! You're the one who has a problem by questioning someone else's opinion,are you a narcissistic? You don't control nothing over here,if you don't like how I feel about "Polygamous" keep it moving and manage your own "Life Style"!! It's not going to change my opinion about "Polygamous"!! Bye Bye!!

Yes you do have the right to your opinion, and I have the right to question your opinion.

By you questioning my opinion,did you solve anything?? I hope so because you are like a damn "Fly" who I would love to knock the hell out of!! Now Buzz the hell off!! Hahahahahahaha!!

Yes

Polygamy is nothing more than multiple marriages. There is nothing wrong with that. If multiple people want to be married to each other, that's their business. I personally wouldn't go for it, but I've never loved more than one woman at a time, either.

The only caveat, though, is that a woman should be allowed to marry multiple men as well as the other way around. That pesky equality thing, you know?

Why not? Any number of consenting adults can enter into other legally binding contracts.

I am not a 100% yes. This is a hard one. Many of these marriages are pressed onto the person. They might say yes, but not because they actually want that. Repercussions could follow like the yoke of disapproval. That sucks. Ever live under that? By just family or a whole community? It feels awful.

wgossett99 to D D 2012/08/06 13:35:12

I agree with much of what you say but this question say "consenting addults (sic)". Some of those Mormon marriages with 14-year-olds don't meet that criteria IMHO.

i dont see why not ? some people can only love for one person, but others have enough love to share with a few :-) as long as all partys know what is going on and they are all happy with the situation i cant see why not.

Sure, it should. It's a personal choice, so if you don't like to do it, don't. But don't forbid others from it. It does worry me though when it comes to those communities that kind of morally-force their children to engage in such marriages due religious ideals. But then again, there are people forced into marriages in ANY type of marriages, so that shouldn't be a reason to ban it, I think.

There is no reason to ban it. If you believe it is immoral and goes against you religion than don't have a polygamous marriage.

If you are going to open marriage up to gays, you should open it up to everyone. That means any and all manners of marriage.

I don't know... Ever seen some of these families? Why is it always one man and a bunch of women. If one wife is trouble enough, why complicate an already difficult institution.

If those involved are consenting adults Yes
